liquidation store

Going-out-of-business shop

A liquidation store sells merchandise from businesses that are closing, overstocked, or bankrupt—goods acquired in bulk at steep discounts and passed on to shoppers at below-retail prices.

The inventory is unpredictable: I found a $200 espresso machine at the liquidation store for forty bucks.

Also called a closeout store.
